After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

"If you don't mind me asking how exactly do you two low each other?" Alistair asked as they each sank into their respective seats.

He was silent for a while, eyes searching hers before he spoke. "You don't... remember me anymore, do you?" Leonica furrowed her brows, confusion evident in her expression. "I'm sorry, what?

"The young master fell asleep right after his bath." Grace informed as she descended the last flight of stairs and picked up the dusting reg she had dropped off before going upstairs, about to resume her duties. When she noticed Leonica's unwavering stare on her, she asked. "Should I have stopped him? Perhaps I should have kept him awake so he could sleep better at night?"

"Uh, no. Not at all. It's just," There was a pause in her sentence in which Leonica chuckled to herself. "It's not every day you see Ash fall asleep right after a bath."

Grace nodded her head. "Indeed. The Child must have been really exhausted." She reasoned, reaching for the television remote and turning
